15 hours per week, with a further 5 hours per week delivered as Distance Education (Study done at home in the form of

unsatisfactory progress.

The Academy has implemented the DEEWR-DIAC Course Progress Policy and Procedures. More detail is available in the Student
Handbook, but basically a student will be reported if they fail to gain competency in half of the units completed in a study period.
Competency for each Unit is determined in up to four ways. Assessment occurs on a weekly/ fortnightly basis, hence regular
attendance is important:

The Eagle Academy will partner up with the Broadbeach Surf School to deliver some of the specialised skills associated with many
of these areas.
Timetable
At each campus the classes for theory may vary and excursions are held 3 times per term (of 10 weeks). There are tuition times
